The Art and History Of Film Noir Posters A wide variety of classic film noir posters are available to buy online. The colorful, dynamic artwork is reminiscent of the covers of pulp detective and crime novels of the 20's and 30's, from which many of the film noir stories were born Though the movies were black and white, the posters were rich with color. An exception was "Kiss of Death", which had an all black and white poster. The distinctive artwork characteristic of these posters was paint based, rather than photography based, as movie ads are today. The results are colorful, striking and captivating. These posters were usually made by a creative team, where one person created the concept, the next person did the drawings, and still another person did the wording. Perhaps ten thousand or so posters were printed out at the time of the film's release, and then they would make the theater rounds, increasing their wear and tear. If you want to decorate your home or office with one of these beauties, Veramar Arts has a wide variety of classic noir posters for sale at great prices. These are reproductions on Canvas, which is why you can get them so cheap. Reproductions look as good as the real thing, but aren't collector's items, so are not as valuable as the originals. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
